You can still win Shipyard — multiply your changes by shipping to another brief

With only a few days remaining to submit entries for Shipyard, aspiring developers are encouraged to focus on creating a minimum viable product (MVP) that can be quickly developed and tested on platforms like TestFlight or Google Play. The event emphasizes shipping rather than perfection, allowing participants to submit one app per creator brief, with seven different briefs available. Utilizing tools like those from Anthropic's Claude Code Opus 4.6 model, developers can expedite app creation by leveraging AI for coding, data normalization, and real-time analysis. Three specific briefs are highlighted: an investment tracker app, a cross-device reminders app, and a social app for van-lifers. Each presents unique challenges and opportunities, such as using APIs for data management or frameworks like React Native for cross-platform functionality. The article encourages developers to submit compelling apps by strategically selecting briefs and utilizing modern technologies to maximize their chances of success before the deadline.
